The broken bed.
Our bed, our most favorite, leather padded headboard with the perfect color to match our furniture. It broke.
The foot board, which according to my hubby, had been preparing to break for sometime now, finally gave up a few weeks back and came down with a crash. It is currently being held up by a stack of old computer books. The bed now slopes down towards the side without the books, even though we took out one of the books when we first noticed it. Guess what side is up higher? Mine… which means that I sleep on a small slope.
There isn’t an easy fix, though we have talked about a few options. My vote was to put the headboard on our old bed frame (which we happen to still have) because it is free and wouldn’t take much extra effort. My hubby thought we could build a platform, but who knows when we would be able to do so, he is so busy. Of course I dream that we could afford to buy this gorgeous bed from Pottery Barn right now! Under the bed storage drawers would rock my world. We could even keep our awesome headboard. Too bad it’s a budget buster at $1800!

The books are also a major toe hazard. I have more than once stubbed multiple toes on them, so has my hubby. Maybe we should just get rid of the bed and put in hammocks instead. LOL… I can just imagine us falling out in the middle of the night.
